You keep saying it's legal and it's a choice but it's NOT, it's based on facts, not by choice!

OK, "common-law partner" is law as defined in the Income Tax Act subsection 248(1). For general summary, read the Guide, page 9, under Marital Status (see link below). Basically is for ppl live together for 12 months or has a child...

没找到有文字规定"不能算single"，common law 只是规定了想申报同居的条件，并不是一定要报同居 -aluke(一个路客); 6.25 16:28 (#6147038@0)

谁跟你说的有这种权利？Common law 就是 common law，同居12个月以上，"或者"有了小孩，就得算common law partner，不能算single。楼主说的那情况，是违法的，税务局应该可以查的，漏网的早晚算账，也不会太多。

我要钻一下牛角尖：没找到有文字规定"不能算single"，common law 只是规定了想申报同居的条件，并不是一定要报同居，因为税法的初衷是家庭比单身要多一些好处，所以有限制条件，但现在已经变成了不是这么回事，所以我才说希望政府想办法堵这个漏洞。

Tick one of the other boxes ONLY IF married or living common law does not apply to you.

加拿大婚姻上有三种选择，married, common law and single. 没有married 的并不一定是single， OK?

common law 是 single 的子集。作为common law 有很多条件，不想作为common law 是很容易的。美国税法和加拿大以前的税法根本就不承认common law ，即，common law 就是single。

和你想象的恰恰相反，加拿大common law 基本等同于 married. 不行你试common law的分手 ，看看你是否要支付对方抚养费，小孩的抚养费什么就知道了。

和你想象的恰恰相反，如果你想试试common law的分手，那么你首先必须成为common law。看看你既不是married又不是common law 是否能得到对方抚养费，小孩的抚养费什么就知道了。

as long as they have different address for tax return, there are ok. If not, they will receive letter within 2 years from CRA asking to prove they are separated and to avoid reassesment.
